Build texture, body, and shine with Liquitex BASICS Gloss Heavy Gel, 250 mL Tube. This thick, high-viscosity acrylic medium increases paint volume while maintaining color brilliance and extending working time. Ideal for impasto techniques, texture building, and collage, it retains peaks and brushstrokes for expressive dimensional effects. When mixed with acrylic paint, it enhances gloss and transparency, creating a luminous, durable surface that resists cracking or shrinking. It can also be used alone as a clear textural layer or adhesive for mixed-media applications. Perfect for artists, educators, and students, Liquitex BASICS Gloss Heavy Gel provides professional-quality texture control, flexibility, and shine, making it an essential medium for expressive fine art and classroom projects alike.
- Thickens Paint for Oil-Like Texture: Liquitex BASICS Gloss Heavy Gel increases the viscosity of acrylic paints, giving them an oil paint-like consistency. This allows for the creation of textures that hold brush and knife marks, making it ideal for impasto techniques and adding depth to your artwork.
- Enhances Gloss and Color Depth: When mixed with acrylic colors, this gel medium boosts surface gloss and enriches color depth and transparency. The result is a more vibrant and luminous finish that enhances the visual impact of your paintings.
- Extends Working Time: The gel slows the drying time of acrylic paints, providing artists with extended working time for blending and refining their work. This is particularly beneficial for detailed or layered paintings where more manipulation time is desired.
- Versatile Medium and Adhesive: Beyond mixing with paint, Liquitex BASICS Gloss Heavy Gel can be used directly as a strong adhesive for collage and mixed media projects. It also serves as a transparent ground for acrylics instead of gesso, offering flexibility in various artistic applications.
- Water-Based and Non-Yellowing: Safe, durable, and easy to clean up.
- Trusted Liquitex quality: Made by Liquitex, experts in fine art materials for students and professionals.
